Can the MP2 be controlled via Modbus-RTU RS485 or CAN-Bus

Hello,

i want to override the usage of a EM24. Therefore i want to use a IOBroker with a Modbus-RTU-Interface. Is it possible to control the Victron MP2 over RS485 interface.

I know it is possible via Wifi. But i do not want to use any WLAN/LAN-Connections. I prefer direct wired control.

Or is it anyhow possible to control the MP2 by wire?

With best regards,

Peter

Yes u can read and change some Parameter via rs485 on the MP2. There is a list on victron page.

With gx firmware 2.9x and up, u have also possibilty touse node-red on gx device for making a workflow and change something on victron devices
